But Tottenham Harry Redknapp has labelled the Europa League a Premier League 'killer' due to the amount of matches and travelling.

Redknapp will utilise his younger players for European action.

The White Hart Lane tactician has labelled the situation a 'nightmare', although he insists the club will be giving it a go in the tournament.

Harry Redknapp: "The young lads will get plenty of games in the Europa League because, otherwise, I think it's a killer, to be frank.

"Thursday and Sunday every week, you've got no chance in the Premier with that. It kills you off, it's a nightmare.

"You have to go to crazy places, but we'll give it our best shot and just give it a go."
